Bestimmung der Schubspannungsfunktion des Blutes mit dem Couette-Rheometer unter Berücksichtigung des Wandverhaltens

Zusammenfassung Bei Blutergeben sich aus Messungen an verschiedenen Couette-Systemen verschiedene Verläufe für die Schubspannungsfunktion, wenn man Wandhaften annimmt. Es wird daher ein Wandeffekt angenommen, bei dem die unentmischte Blutsuspension unmittelbar auf der Wand gleitet. Die Wandgleitgeschwindigkeit wird als Funktion der Wandschubspannung angesetzt und aus Messungen an drei verschiedenen Couette-Systemen bestimmt.Aus der so ermittelten Wandgleitgeschwindigkeit kann die Dicke eines Blutplasmafilmes an der Wand abgeschätzt werden. Sie ergibt sich zu einigen µm. Dadurch wird die angenommene Modellvorstellung für den Wandeffekt bestätigt.Bei Berücksichtigung der ermittelten Wandgleitgeschwindigkeit ergibt sich für die Schubspannungsfunktion aus Messungen an verschiedenen Couette-Systemen derselbe Verlauf. Bei Annahme von Wandhaften ergeben sich dagegen deutlich zu hohe Werte für die Schubspannungsfunktion.

Summary Measurements with blood in different Couette-Systems are resulting in different shear functionsf() if no wall-slip effect is assumed.Therefore we use the model that the homogeneous blood suspension is sliding directly on the wall. The wall-slip velocity is introduced as a function of the wall shear stress. This wall-slip function can be determined from measurements with three different Couette-Systems.After the wall-slip function is determined the thickness of a plasma film on the wall can be estimated. One gets a thickness of a few µms. Thus the assumed model for the wall effect is confirmed. Measurements with different Couette-Systems evaluated according to the wall-slip model, are leading to the same shear functionf().

Transport in ordered and disordered porous media V: Geometrical results for two-dimensional systems

In this paper we continue the geometrical studies of computer generated two-phase systems that were presented in Part IV. In order to reduce the computational time associated with the previous three-dimensional studies, the calculations presented in this work are restricted to two dimensions. This allows us to explore more thoroughly the influence of the size of the averaging volume and to learn something about the use of anon-representative region in the determination of averaged quantities.

Boundary layer effect on thermal NO decomposition behind incident shock waves

The thermal decomposition of nitric oxide (diluted in Argon) has been measured behind incident shock waves by means of IR diode laser absorption spectroscopy. In two independent runs the diode laser was tuned to the=0 =1² _3/2 R(18.5)-rotational vibrational transition and the=1 =2² _3/2 R(20.5)-rotational vibrational transition of nitric oxide, respectively. These two transitions originating from the vibrational ground state (=0) and the first excited vibrational state (=1) were selected in order to probe the homogeneity along the absorption path. The measured NO decomposition could satisfactorily be described by a chemical reaction mechanism after taking into account boundary layer corrections according to the theory of Mirels. The study forms a further proof of Mirels' theory including his prediction of the laminar-turbulent transition. It also shows, that the inhomogeneities from the boundary layer do not affect the IR linear absorption markedly.This article was processed using Springer-Verlag T_EX Shock Waves macro package 1.0 and the AMS fonts, developed by the American Mathematical Society.     

On the cross-effects of coupled macroscopic transport equations in porous media

In this paper, the derivation of macroscopic transport equations for this cases of simultaneous heat and water, chemical and water or electrical and water fluxes in porous media is presented. Based on themicro-macro passage using the method of homogenization of periodic structures, it is shown that the resulting macroscopic equations reveal zero-valued cross-coupling effects for the case of heat and water transport as well as chemical and water transport.

The Gibbs-Thompson relation within the gradient theory of phase transitions

This paper discusses the asymptotic behavior as 0+ of the chemical potentials associated with solutions of variational problems within the Van der Waals-Cahn-Hilliard theory of phase transitions in a fluid with free energy, per unit volume, given by ²¦¦²+ W(), where is the density. The main result is that is asymptotically equal to E/d+o(), with E the interfacial energy, per unit surface area, of the interface between phases, the (constant) sum of principal curvatures of the interface, and d the density jump across the interface. This result is in agreement with a formula conjectured by M. Gurtin and corresponds to the Gibbs-Thompson relation for surface tension, proved by G. Caginalp within the context of the phase field model of free boundaries arising from phase transitions.     

The virtual origin of riblets in an open channel flow

In this paper, a method using the mean velocity profiles for the buffer layer was developed for the estimation of the virtual origin over a riblets surface in an open channel flow. First, the standardized profiles of the mixing length were estimated from the velocity measurement in the inner layer, and the location of the edge of the viscous layer was obtained. Then, the virtual origins were estimated by the best match between the measured velocity profile and the equations of the velocity profile derived from the mixing length profiles. It was made clear that the virtual origin and the thickness of the viscous layer are the function of the roughness Reynolds number. The drag variation coincided well with other results.Nomenclature f _r skin friction coefficient - f _ro skin friction coefficient in smooth channel at the same flow quantity and the same energy slope - g gravity acceleration - H water depth from virtual origin to water surface - H ⁺ u*H/ - H false water depth from top of riblets to water surface - H ⁺ u*H/ - I _e streamwise energy slope - I _b bed slope - k riblet height - k ⁺ u*k/ - l mixing length - l _s standardized mixing length - Q flow quantity - Re Reynolds number volume flow/unit width/v - s riblet spacing - u mean velocity - u* friction velocity = - u* false friction velocity = - y distance from virtual origin - y distance from top of riblet - y ₀ distance from top of riblet to virtual origin - y _v distance from top of riblet to edge of viscous layer - y ⁺ u*y/ - y ⁺ u*y/ - y ₀ ⁺ u*y ₀/ - u ⁺ u*y/ - shifting coefficient for standardization - thickness of viscous layer=y ₀+y - ⁺ u*/ - ⁺ u*/ - eddy viscosity - ridge angle - v kinematic viscosity - density - shear stress     

Rheology of molten polymers

Summary TheCross equation describes the flow of pseudoplastic liquids in terms of an upper and a lower Newtonian viscosity corresponding to infinite and zero shear, and ₀, and of a third material constant related to the mechanism of rupture of linkages between particles in the intermediate, non-Newtonian flow regime, Calculation of of bulk polymers is important, since it cannot be determined experimentally. The equation was applied to the melt flow data of two low density polyethylenes at three temperatures.Using data in the non-Newtonian region covering 3 decades of shear rate to extrapolate to the zero-shear viscosity resulted in errors amounting to about onethird of the measured ₀ values. The extrapolated upper Newtonian viscosity was found to be independent of temperature within the precision of the data, indicating that it has a small activation energy.The ₀ values were from 100 to 1,400 times larger than the values at the corresponding temperatures.The values of were large compared to the values found for colloidal dispersions and polymer solutions, but decreased with increasing temperature. This shows that shear is the main factor in reducing chain entanglements, but that the contribution of Brownian motion becomes greater at higher temperatures.

Zusammenfassung Die Gleichung vonCross beschreibt das Fließverhalten von pseudoplastischen Flüssigkeiten durch drei Konstante: Die obereNewtonsche Viskosität (bei sehr hohen Schergeschwindigkeiten), die untereNewtonsche Viskosität ₀ (bei Scherspannung Null), und eine Materialkonstante, die vom Brechen der Bindungen zwischen Partikeln im nicht-Newtonschen Fließbereich abhängt. Die Berechnung von ist wichtig für unverdünnte Polymere, wo man sie nicht messen kann.Die Gleichung wurde auf das Fließverhalten der Schmelzen von zwei handelsüblichen Hochdruckpolyäthylenen bei drei Temperaturen angewandt. Die Werte von ₀, durch Extrapolation von gemessenen scheinbaren Viskositäten im Schergeschwindigkeitsbereich von 10 bis 4000 sec^–1 errechnet, wichen bis 30% von den gemessenen ₀-Werten ab. Die Aktivierungsenergie der war so klein, daß die-Werte bei den drei Temperaturen innerhalb der Genauigkeit der Extrapolation anscheinend gleich waren. Die ₀-Werte waren 100 bis 1400 mal größer als die-Werte.Im Verhältnis zu kolloidalen Dispersionen und verdünnten Polymerlösungen war das der Schmelzen groß, nahm aber mit steigender Temperatur ab. Deshalb wird die Verhakung der Molekülketten hauptsächlich durch Scherbeanspruchung vermindert, aber der Beitrag derBrownschen Bewegung nimmt mit steigender Temperatur zu.

     

Viscoelastic swirling flow with free surface in cylindrical chambers

The flow of a viscoelastic liquid driven by the steadily rotating bottom cover of a cylindrical cup is investigated. The flow field and the shape of the free surface are determined at the lowest significant orders of the regular domain perturbation in terms of the angular velocity of the bottom cap. The meridional field superposed on a primary azimuthal field shows a structure of multiple cells. The velocity field and the shape of the free surface are strongly effected by the cylinder aspect ratio and the elasticity of the liquid. The use of this flow configuration as a free surface rheometer to determine the first two Rivlin-Ericksen constants is shown to be promising.Nomenclature R, ,Z Coordinates in the physical domain D - , , Coordinates in the rest stateD ₀ - r, ,z Dimensionless coordinates in the rest stateD ₀ - Angular velocity - Zero shear viscosity - Surface tension coefficient - Density - Dimensionless surface tension parameter - ₁, ₂ The first two Rivlin-Ericksen constants - Stream function - Dimensionless second order meridional stream function - ^* Dimensionless second normal stress function - 2 Dimensionless sum of the first and second normal stress functions - N ₁,N ₂ The first and second normal stress functions - n Unit normal vector - D Stretching tensor - A _n nth order Rivlin-Ericksen tensor - S Extra-stress - u Velocity field - U Dimensionless second order meridional velocity field - V Dimensionless first order azimuthal velocity field - p Pressure - Modified pressure field - P Dimensionless second order pressure field - J Mean curvature - a Cylinder radius - d Liquid depth at rest - D Dimensionless liquid depth at rest - h Free surface height - H Dimensionless free surface height at the second order     

Flow in porous media III: Deformable media

Stokes flow in a deformable medium is considered in terms of an isotropic, linearly elastic solid matrix. The analysis is restricted to steady forms of the momentum equations and small deformation of the solid phase. Darcy's law can be used to determine the motion of the fluid phase; however, the determination of the Darcy's law permeability tensor represents part of the closure problem in which the position of the fluid-solid interface must be determined.Roman Letters A interfacial area of the- interface contained within the macroscopic system, m² - A interfacial area of the- interface contained within the averaging volume, m² - A _e area of entrances and exits for the-phase contained within the macroscopic system, m² - A ^* interfacial area of the- interface contained within a unit cell, m² - A _e ^* area of entrances and exits for the-phase contained within a unit cell, m² - E Young's modulus for the-phase, N/m² - e i unit base vectors (i = 1, 2, 3) - g gravity vector, m²/s - H height of elastic, porous bed, m - k unit base vector (=e ₃) - characteristic length scale for the-phase, m - L characteristic length scale for volume-averaged quantities, m - n unit normal vector pointing from the-phase toward the-phase (n = -n ) - p pressure in the-phase, N/m² - P p – g·r, N/m² - r ₀ radius of the averaging volume, m - r position vector, m - t time, s - T total stress tensor in the-phase, N/m² - T ⁰ hydrostatic stress tensor for the-phase, N/m² - u displacement vector for the-phase, m - V averaging volume, m₃ - V volume of the-phase contained within the averaging volume, m³ - v velocity vector for the-phase, m/s Greek Letters V /V, volume fraction of the-phase - mass density of the-phase, kg/m³ - shear coefficient of viscosity for the-phase, Nt/m² - first Lamé coefficient for the-phase, N/m² - second Lamé coefficient for the-phase, N/m² - bulk coefficient of viscosity for the-phase, Nt/m² - T –T ⁰ , a deviatoric stress tensor for the-phase, N/m²     

Flow birefringence of polymer melts: Application to the investigation of time dependent rheological properties

Summary Transient stresses including normal stresses, which are developed in a polymer melt by a suddenly imposed constant rate of shear, are investigated by mechanical measurement and, indirectly, with the aid of the flow birefringence technique. For the latter purpose use is made of the so-called stress-optical law, which is carefully checked.It appears that the essentially linear model of the rubberlike liquid, as proposed byLodge, is capable of describing the behaviour of polymer melts rather well, if the applied total shear does not exceed unity. In order to describe also steady state values of the stresses successfully, one should extend measurements to extremely low shear rates.These statements are verified with the aid of a method which was originally designed bySchwarzl andStruik for the practical calculation of interrelations between linear viscoelastic functions. In the present paper dynamic shear moduli are used as reference functions.

Zusammenfassung Mit der Zeit anwachsende Spannungen, darunter auch Normalspannungen, wie sie sich nach dem plötzlichen Anlegen einer konstanten Schergeschwindigkeit in einer Polymerschmelze entwickeln, werden mit Hilfe mechanischer Messungen und indirekt mit Hilfe der Strömungsdoppelbrechung untersucht. Für den letzteren Zweck wird das sogenannte spannungsoptische Gesetz herangezogen, dessen Gültigkeit sorgfältig überprüft wird.Es ergibt sich, daß das im Wesen lineare Modell der gummiartigen Flüssigkeit, wie es vonLodge vorgeschlagen wurde, sich recht gut zur Beschreibung des Verhaltens von Polymerschmelzen eignet, solange der im ganzen angelegte Schub den Wert Eins nicht überschreitet. Um auch stationäre Werte der Spannungen in die Beschreibung erfolgreich einzubeziehen, sollte man die Messungen bis zu extrem niedrigen Schergeschwindigkeiten ausdehnen.Die gemachten Feststellungen werden mit Hilfe einer Methode verifiziert, die vonSchwarzl undStruik ursprünglich für die praktische Berechnung von Beziehungen zwischen Zustandsfunktionen entwickelt wurde, die dem linear viskoelastischen Verhalten entsprechen. In der vorliegenden Veröffentlichung dienen die dynamischen Schubmoduln als Bezugsfunktionen.

Wärmestrahlung staubhaltiger Gase

Zusammenfassung Nach einem mehr qualitativen theoretischen Überblick über Absorption und Streuung der Strahlung an kleinen Partikeln wird gezeigt, daß sich bei kleinen optischen Dichten als analytischer Ausdruck für die Emissionszahl der Staubstrahlung ein der Gasstrahlung analoger Ausdruck ergibt. Dieses Ergebnis wird durch Messungen bestätigt. Insgesamt werden die Emissionsdaten von 20 untersuchten Kesselstäuben angegeben und interpretiert. Es werden Durchschnittswerte empfohlen, um bei Stäuben mit unbekannten Strahlungsdaten näherungsweise Austauschrechnungen durchzuführen. Die Untersuchungen gelten für Strahlungsräume von annähernd konstanter Temperatur.

Radiation of gases containing dust particles

Having presented a more qualitative short survey about absorption and scattering on small particles, it is shown that in the range of small optical thicknesses expressions for the emissivity of dust clouds are analogue to those of gases. Measurements confirm this. The emissivities of twenty different dust materials are measured and interpreted. For calculations with unknown materials average emissivity data are recommended.

On the influence of transvers-curvature and density in inhomogeneous turbulent free jets

The prediction of turbulent flows based on the k- model is extended to include the influence of transverse-curvature and density on the turbulent transport mechanisms. The empirical constants involved are adjusted such that the best agreement between predictions and experimental results is obtained. Using a transformation the boundary layer equations are solved numerically by means of a finite difference method of Hermitian type. The extended model is applied to predict the axisymmetric jet with variable density. The results of the calculations are in agreement with measurements.

Transcendentally small transversality in the rapidly forced pendulum

The rapidly forced pendulum equation with forcing sin((t/), where =<₀^p,p = 5, for ₀, sufficiently small, is considered. We prove that stable and unstable manifolds split and that the splitting distanced(t) in the ( ,t) plane satisfiesd(t) = sin(t/) sech(/2) +O( ₀ exp(–/2)) (2.3a) and the angle of transversal intersection,, in thet = 0 section satisfies 2 tan/2 = 2S _s = (/2) sech(/2) +O(( ₀ /) exp(–/2)) (2.3b) It follows that the Melnikov term correctly predicts the exponentially small splitting and angle of transversality. Our method improves a previous result of Holmes, Marsden, and Scheuerle. Our proof is elementary and self-contained, includes a stable manifold theorem, and emphasizes the phase space geometry.     

Transport in ordered and disordered porous media IV: Computer generated porous media for three-dimensional systems

In the method of volume averaging, the difference between ordered and disordered porous media appears at two distinct points in the analysis, i.e. in the process of spatial smoothing and in the closure problem. In theclosure problem, the use of spatially periodic boundary conditions isconsistent with ordered porous media and the fields under consideration when the length-scale constraint,r ₀L is satisfied. For disordered porous media, spatially periodic boundary conditions are an approximation in need of further study.In theprocess of spatial smoothing, average quantities must be removed from area and volume integrals in order to extractlocal transport equations fromnonlocal equations. This leads to a series of geometrical integrals that need to be evaluated. In Part II we indicated that these integrals were constants for ordered porous media provided that the weighting function used in the averaging process contained thecellular average. We also indicated that these integrals were constrained by certain order of magnitude estimates for disordered porous media. In this paper we verify these characteristics of the geometrical integrals, and we examine their values for pseudo-periodic and uniformly random systems through the use of computer generated porous media.

Magnetohydrodynamic natural convection heat transfer from radiate vertical porous surfaces

Magnetohydrodynamic natural convection heat transfer from radiate vertical surfaces with fluid suction or injection is considered. The nonsimilarity parameter is found to be the conductive fluid injection or suction along the streamwise coordinate = V{4x/² g(T _w – T )}^1/4. Three dimensionless parameters had been found to describe the problem: the magnetic influence number N = B ² _y /V ², the radiation-conduction parameter R _d = k _R /4aT ³ , and the Gebhart number Ge _x = gx/cp to represent the effect of the viscous dissipation. It is found that increasing the magnetic field strength causes the velocity and the heat transfer rates inside the boundary layer to decrease. Its apparent that increasing the radiation-conduction parameter decreases the velocity and enhances the heat transfer rates. The Gebhart number, i.e, the viscous dissipation had no effect on the present problem.Nomenclature a Stefan-Boltzmann constant - B _y Magnetic field flux density Wb/m² - Cf _x Local skin friction factor - c _p Specific heat capacity - f Dimensionless stream function - Ge _x Gebhart number, gx/cp - g Gravitational acceleration - k Thermal Conductivity - L Length of the plate - N Magnetic influence number, B ² _y /V ² - p Pressure - Pr Prandtl number - q _r Radiative heat flux - q _w (x) Local surface heat flux - Q _w (x) Dimensionless Local surface heat flux - R _d Planck number (Radiation-Conduction parameter), k _R /4aT ³ - T Temperature - T Free stream temperature - T _w Wall temperature - u, v Velocity components in x- and y-directions - V Porous wall suction or injection velocity - V _w Porous wall suction or injection velocity - x, y Axial and normal coordinates - Thermal diffusivity Greek symbols _R Roseland mean absorption coefficient, 4/3R _d - Coefficient of thermal expansion - Nonsimilarity parameter, V{4x/² g(T _w – T )}^1/4 - Peseudo-similarity variable - Dimensionless temperature - _w Ratio of surface temperature to the ambient temperature, T _w /T - Dynamice viscosity - Kinemtic viscosity - Fluid density - Electrical conductivity - _w Local wall shear stress - Dimensional stream function     

Application of the Chapman-Enskog method to the case of a binary two-temperature gas mixture

An interesting property of the flows of a binary mixture of neutral gases for which the molecular mass ratio =m/M1 is that within the limits of the applicability of continuum mechanics the components of the mixture may have different temperatures. The process of establishing the Maxwellian equilibrium state in such a mixture divides into several stages, which are characterized by relaxation times _i which differ in order of magnitude. First the state of the light component reaches equilibrium, then the heavy component, after which equilibrium between the components is established [1]. In the simplest case the relaxation times differ from one another by a factor of ^*.Here the mixture component temperature difference relaxation time _T /, where is the relaxation time for the light component. If 1, 1, so that _T ~1, then for the characteristic hydrodynamic time scale t~1 the relative temperature difference will be of order unity. In the absence of strong external force fields the component velocity difference is negligibly small, since its relaxation time _vt1.In the case of a fully ionized plasma the Chapman-Enskog method is quite easily extended to the case of the two-temperature mixture [3], since the Landau collision integral is used, which decomposes directly with respect to . In the Boltzmann cross collision integral, the quantity appears in the formulas relating the velocities before and after collision, which hinders the decomposition of this integral with respect to , which is necessary for calculating the relaxation terms in the equations for temperatures differing from zero in the Euler approximation [4] (the transport coefficients are calculated considerably more simply, since for their determination it is sufficient to account for only the first (Lorentzian [5]) terms of the decomposition of the cross collision integrals with respect to ). This led to the use in [4] for obtaining the equations of the considered continuum mixture of a specially constructed model kinetic equation (of the Bhatnagar-Krook type) which has an undetermined degree of accuracy.In the following we use the Boltzmann equations to obtain the equations of motion of a two-temperature binary gas mixture in an approximation analogous to that of Navier-Stokes (for convenience we shall term this approximation the Navier-Stokes approximation) to determine the transport coefficients and the relaxation terms of the equations for the temperatures. The equations in the Burnett approximation, and so on, may be obtained similarly, although this derivation is not useful in practice.     

Modelling of heat transfer by conduction in a transition region between a porous medium and an external fluid

We study the modelling of purely conductive heat transfer between a porous medium and an external fluid within the framework of the volume averaging method. When the temperature field for such a system is classically determined by coupling the macroscopic heat conduction equation in the porous medium domain to the heat conduction equation in the external fluid domain, it is shown that the phase average temperature cannot be predicted without a generally negligible error due to the fact that the boundary conditions at the interface between the two media are specified at the macroscopic level.Afterwards, it is presented an alternative modelling by means of a single equation involving an effective thermal conductivity which is a function of point inside the interfacial region.The theoretical results are illustrated by means of some numerical simulations for a model porous medium. In particular, temperature fields at the microscopic level are presented.Roman Letters _sf interfacial area of thes-f interface contained within the macroscopic system m² - A _sf interfacial area of thes-f interface contained within the averaging volume m² - C _p mass fraction weighted heat capacity, kcal/kg/K - g vector that maps to _s , m - h vector that maps to _f , m - K _eff effective thermal conductivity tensor, kcal/m s K - l _s,l _f microscopic characteristic length m - L macroscopic characteristic length, m - n _fs outwardly directed unit normal vector for thef-phase at thef-s interface - n outwardly directed unit normal vector at the dividing surface. - R ₀ REV characteristic length, m - T _i macroscopic temperature at the interface, K - error on the external fluid temperature due to the macroscopic boundary condition, K - T ^* macroscopic temperature field obtained by solving the macroscopic Equation (3), K - V averaging volume, m³ - V _s,V _f volume of the considered phase within the averaging volume, m³. - _mp volume of the porous medium domain, m³ - _ex volume of the external fluid domain, m³ - _s , _f volume of the considered phase within the volume of the macroscopic system, m³ - dividing surface, m² - x, z spatial coordinates Greek Letters _s, _f volume fraction - ratio of the effective thermal conductivity to the external fluid thermal conductivity - ^* macroscopic thermal conductivity (single equation model) kcal/m s K - _s, _f microscopic thermal conductivities, kcal/m s K - spatial average density, kg/m³ - microscopic temperature, K - ^* microscopic temperature corresponding toT ^*, K - spatial deviation temperature K - error in the temperature due to the macroscopic boundary conditions, K - ^* _i macroscopic temperature at the interface given by the single equation model, K - spatial average - ^s , ^f intrinsic phase average.     

Mixed convection flow in narrow vertical ducts

The mixed convection flow in a vertical duct is analysed under the assumption that , the ratio of the duct width to the length over which the wall is heated, is small. It is assumed that a fully developed Poiseuille flow has already been set up in the duct before heat from the wall causes this to be changed by the action of the buoyancy forces, as measured by a buoyancy parameter . An analytical solution is derived for the case when the Reynolds numberRe, based on the duct width, is of 0 (1). This is extended to the case whenRe is 0 (^–1) by numerical integrations of the governing equations for a range of values of representing both aiding and opposing flows. The limiting cases, || 1 andR=Re of 0 (1), andR and both large, with of 0 (R ^1/3) are considered further. Finally, the free convection limit, large with R of 0 (1), is discussed.

Mischkonvektion in engen senkrechten Rohren

Zusammenfassung Mischkonvektion in einem senkrechten Rohr wird unter der Voraussetzung untersucht, daß das Verhältnis der Rohrbreite zur Länge, über welche die Wand beheizt wird, klein ist. Es wird angenommen, daß sich bereits eine voll entwickelte Poiseuille-Strömung in dem Rohr eingestellt hat, bevor Antriebskräfte, gemessen mit dem Auftriebsparameter , aufgrund der Wandbeheizung die Strömung verändern. Es wird eine analytische Lösung für den Fall erhalten, daß die mit der Rohrbreite als charakteristische Länge gebildete Reynolds-ZahlRe konstant ist. Dies wird mittels einer numerischen Integration der wichtigsten Gleichungen auf den FallRe =f (^–1) sowohl für Gleich- als auch für Gegenstrom ausgedehnt. Weiterhin werden die beiden Grenzfälle betrachtet, wenn || 1 undR=Re konstant ist, sowieR und beide groß mit proportionalR ^1/3. Schließlich wird der Grenzfall der freien Konvektion, großes mit konstantem R, diskutiert.

Rheological behaviour of two-phase flow of solid particles in a gas

The present investigation was concerned with the rheological behaviour of dilute suspensions of solid particles in a gas in a vertical cocurrent flow moving upwards. Starting from the experimentally determined dependence of the pressure drop on the concentration of solid particles and the Reynolds number of the carrier medium in the steady flow region, the rheological parameters were estimated using pseudo-shear diagrams. Air was the carrier medium and the dispersed phase was one of six fractions of polypropylene powder and five fractions of glass ballotini. The results show that the investigated two-phase systems have pseudoplastic character which becomes more pronounced with increases in concentration, equivalent diameter and density of solid particles in the flowing suspension.
